Fluorescent light fixtures are generally used in the kitchen, probably due to the efficiency of energy use of the flourescent lights, but they can be mounted practically everywhere.
Fluorescent or compact fluorescent light fixtures are the most efficient in terms of energy costs. The placement of the fixtures does not matter greatly as long as the light is not blocked and is reasonably centrally located, with additional lighting for the mirror/vanity.
Fluorescent light fixtures can be purchases at a wide variety of outlets, including your local office supply, electronics stores, and numerous venues online. Amazon offers very competitive prices for office lighting fixtures.
The basic fluorescent light fixture is AC, although there are fluorescent lights powered by DC.
The best place to buy a bulk quantity of modern-looking fluorescent light fixtures is from a local electrical supply store. If you have several stores in your area you could get estimates for the product you need including installation.

The type of industrial lighting you choose will depend on the space that you are lighting. Popular types include bay lights, fluorescent fixtures, and halogen lights.

It is unlikely that actual light fixtures will be going away any time soon. Fluorescent bulbs will eventually be obsolete as LED and newer technologies take over.
A compact fluorescent lamp (CFL), also called compact fluorescent light, energy-saving light, and compact fluorescent tube, is a fluorescent lamp designed to replace an incandescent lamp; some types fit into light fixtures formerly used for incandescent lamps. The lamps use a tube which is curved or folded to fit into the space of an incandescent bulb, and a compact electronic ballast in the base of the lamp.
